Chapter 46: Comprehending The Sacred Finger Art
When Ye Xiao approached in the vicinity of the Cloudsmoke Forest, he searched for a quite place.
After arriving there, he took out the book which recorded Sacred Finger Art, calmed his thoughts, before immersing in the learning process of the Sacred Finger Art. He repeatedly studied it for three times and when he was confirmed that he remembered everything, he began his practice of Sacred Finger Art.
In the start, it was very difficult for him to properly execute the first move of the Sacred Finger Art, but gradually he familiarized himself with it and returned to the right track.
But still, he was unable to execute the first move of the Sacred Finger Art. Time was pa.s.sing and he was not able to learn it successfully.
It was already evening now and it is going to be night soon.
"d.a.m.n it!"
"Is it really impossible to learn a High Grade Profound Rank martial arts skill in one day. Doesn"t that mean the Earth Grade martial arts skill would be even more difficult to learn than this skill. That guy called Lin Hao also bought the only Low Grade Earth Rank martial arts skill available in the Treasure Pavilion one day ago. Can he successfully learn that skill in only two days."
"Umh!"
"What am I thinking. It is not the right time to distract myself from comprehending the Sacred Finger Art. I should keep trying to learn it before the night falls."
Ye Xiao became frustrated after failing to learn the Sacred Finger Art several times.
"Oh yes, I think I should try to learn this technique at that place." Suddenly Ye Xiao"s eyes lit up as if he remembered something.
"Swish!" Ye Xiao abruptly disappeared from where he was standing and what remained there was only the light gust of wind.
_The World Inside The Heavenly Pearl_
It was a big Gra.s.sland in the shape of a square, covered with many types of extremely beautiful flowers. In the centre of the gra.s.sland, four jade path can be seen which was going to four different directions.
"Woosh!"
A light flashed and Ye Xiao appeared here, in the centre of the beautiful Gra.s.sland out of nowhere.
Ye Xiao looked at the jade path that was going in four different directions. The jade path that was going in the left direction was leading to the mountains and rivers. The jade path which going in the right direction was leading to the dense forest.
He didn"t know where the jade path which was leading in his backward direction leads to, because nothing can be seen from where he was standing in his backward direction except for thick fog which was almost covering the entire Heavenly Pearl. And there was also another reason he did not know what was in that direction because he never went in that direction.
This time also he didn"t try to walk in his backward direction. He silently walked on the jade path that was going straight from here, leading to the Nine Story PaG.o.da.
He stopped as he approached in from the Nine Story PaG.o.da. As he looked at this grand PaG.o.da, he could not help but become astonished at the sight of the Nine Story PaG.o.da in his heart. Although he had seen it multiple times, he still felt astonished the moment his gaze landed on the Nine Story PaG.o.da.
"Just who built this place and this paG.o.da?" Ye Xiao took a deep breath, shaking his head and calmed his emotions and then took his entry in the PaG.o.da.
He appeared in the first floor of the Nine Story PaG.o.da and again saw the large cauldron which was fixed at the centre of the first floor. He had tried many times to move it but he was not able to.
Here, Ye Xiao again started practicing the Sacred Finger Art. As he was practicing it, he gradually immersed himself with it and felt some sort of epiphany, entering the state of one with the mind while unleashing the first move of the Sacred Finger Art.
There was something here, in the air of the First Floor of the Nine Story PaG.o.da which enhanced his comprehension ability and let him immersed in comprehending the Sacred Finger Art.
He forgotten everything. Time, compet.i.tion and even himself. he remembered only one thing and that was to successfully learn the Sacred Finger Art.
Who knows after how much time pa.s.sed, Ye Xiao finally stopped and opened his eyes. A smile that was filled with joy appeared on his face.
"Hahaha!"
"Finally, I can execute the Sacred Finger Art successfully." Ye Xiao began to laugh maniacally.
"It really helped me comprehending the Sacred Finger Art." Ye Xiao looked all around the first floor. He discovered another ability of the Nine Story PaG.o.da. At first, he only made a wild guess that maybe here, in the Nine Story PaG.o.da, he can comprehend the martial art skills and now he really was able to comprehend the martial art skills.
"In the future, I can save a lot of time if I were to cultivate any martial skills or cultivation technique here." Ye Xiao was very happy right now after all only in a single day, he had successfully cultivated a High Grade Profound Rank martial arts skill. If the words of this get out in the public, who knows how much uproar it will cause.
"I don"t know how much times has pa.s.sed. I think I should get out of here and return back to the inn." Ye Xiao murmured in himself and exited the Nine Story PaG.o.da and then again exited from the world inside the Heavenly Pearl.
He once again appeared in the vicinity of the Cloudsmoke Forest. He looked around him only to see the darkness everywhere. It was really too dark. Time to time, the sound of the gust of wind could be heard.
"It looks like it is already midnight." Ye Xiao hurriedly returned to his inn, ordered some food and after eating he began to rest as tomorrow was a big day.
